I will continue to treasure my books every day


I will continue to treasure my books every day

To admire them all on display

There gilted titling on colourful covers and spines

There beautiful designs that seem to come to life

To cherish my most precious book

To hold it in my hands and connect to the story and characters

Escaping into another world as

You gently turn each page

Feeling the books own unique history

The smell of the old pages and print

Books are our history, present and our future

Without them the world would be a very sad place indeed

    I am following you via Whimsical Wednesday. I agree there is nothing like a hard back book. I also like the electronic version to. Your blog is very cool.

    I'm a fan of printed books myself. I'm having a hard time jumping on the kindle bandwagon.

    Stopping by from the Alexa Stop Hop Drop. Thanks for visiting!
